Walking the Roslin Castle

Yesterday’s walk included the ruins of Roslin Castle. There is a bit of climb before you can see the remaining walls but certainly worth the exploration.

The castle is located just outside the village of Roslin, 9 miles south of Edinburgh. Apparently, there has been a castle on this site since the 14th century.

I had to use my imagination as to what it might have been due to only fragments of the walls remaining today. There is no doubt that it commanded a striking presence.

How lovely to explore the castle as part of this walk.
